"I like the short case studies which allow students to focus their attention on particular concepts. The longer case studies at the end of each chapter present more complex situations which students are likely to face in professional practice."

"This is an excellent textbook that adopts a critically analytical and evaluative approach that enables student and practitioners to assess both contemporary and emerging trends and issues that shape the HR agenda. Its in-depth research, critical evaluation of models, tools and theories and, the application of these in practice, supported by case study research, is absolutely invaluable for students."
